I so enjoy your posts, Barbara!Lists rule! They keep me on point, but during the holiday season I need to remind myself to be more realistic with my time. If I have to make room by writing vertically in the margins of the page, obviously I'm over committing and I need to simplify.: )What also helps me tremendously was advice you shared in a previous post...simply substitute "I have to ___" with "I get to ___".

Thank you, too, for the sweet video chat. I see you making more of these and having lots of fun. I like to think of lists as open ended things. What doesn't get done in one day, goes on the list for tomorrow. Eventually, things get done or they're just not that important. In any case, you are the master of the list.

Stay warm!

p. s. Even here in the desert it gets so cold that I get to wear my OMG-it's-the-sweater-that-creates-its-own-heat sweater and I'm STILL chilly (-3 Celsius last night), and that tough old German Shepherd dog refused to go on his morning walk. Brrrrr.
